# Madonna and Child in a Rose Arbour [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [SCHONGAUER, Martin]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Tempera on wood, 201 x 112 cm ## Commentary Of the numerous paintings attributed to Schongauer, only a few can be considered as by his own hand. Many are clearly workshop productions or the paintings of his followers or imitators. None is signed, but the huge MNadonna and Child in a Rose Arbour, dated 1473, has been accepted as an authentic work of the artist. The panel has been cut down on the sides and top, but its entire composition can be reconstructed on the basis of a copy by a follower. Schongauer's composition repeats the famous Madonna in the Rose Garden popular in Cologne and <a onclick="return OpenOther\('/html/l/lochner/madonna.html'\)" href="/html/l/lochner/madonna.html">perfected by Stephan Lochner.</a> Missing portion at the top included the image of the Lord in heaven and the dove of the Holy Spirit, just as in Lochner's work. ## Related artworks - [A Foolish Virgin]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Annunciate Angel]() - [Annunciate Madonna]() - [Apprentices Fighting]() - [Betrayal and Capture of Christ]() - [Carrying the Cross]() - [Censer]() - [Christ on the Cross with Four Angels]() - [Elephant]() - [Entombment]() - [Madonna and Child in the Couryard]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
